Seeing where Cade Fortin is the starter for Ark

At least that's what I see on the hawgs board. Anybody else reading that?

Yeah Jefferson got banged up pretty good against bama.

Man that's a sad situation - they fired him and then the HC still claims he didn't have a head injury. Then why did you fire the guy? Scape goat

I watched footage of him after I read that. He's a bit shifty. But, if Jefferson is out, I'm not sure what frame of mind that leaves that team in.

Dude's first start with about 40,000+ cowbells isn't going to be a walk in the park.

Yeah, that guy had no business going back in the game on Sunday! None. Even if a DR cleared it, the HC can make the call and keep him out.

This is not good for us. Jefferson absolutely sucks. IMO this gives Arkansas a little better chance.

Idk about that. Here's a link to his stats. Check out previous years at USF...

I see what you're saying, but I'm one of those eye test guys. Jefferson looks terrible every time I see him play. He doesn't scare me at all. In fairness though, I don't know anything about his replacement other than those stats.

Are you ****ing kidding me?!!!

If this kid was that good he'd be the starting QB.

Some of y'all need to fix this inferiority complex y'all have.

Jefferson is tough and a great runner. They're gonna lose some of the option game with him out and there's a reason he's been starting over fortin. Fortin is not much of a passer and even though Jefferson isn't a great thrower he's better than fortin. Also take into account fortin hasn't played against an sec defense in a road game.

Man!!! Please try to chill. You sound so uptight and obviously didn't even understand my post.
Let me try to simplify my thought.....

I really wish Jefferson was starting. Jefferson is bad and doesn't scare anybody.
As a fan, I was looking forward to our team going up against him.
I don't know ANYTHING about his replacement, so I don't feel as confident simply because he's an unknown and it may change their offense. He may really suck and we may have an even bigger advantage, but I was just going with the know variable.
Hopefully that helps those that like to think the worst about other peoples posts.

Jefferson hasn't been quite as good as he was last year but is still putting up pretty solid numbers and is having to do more with no Burks to throw to. Arkansas fans haven't been thrilled with Briles' playcalling this year either.

This weekend may get ugly. Fortin didn't even start at USF and Arkansas' only other option is Malik Hornsby who is super fast but can't throw at all and has been playing some WR so I would expect a lot of running the ball.

But is he fast? Even though Jefferson is good runner, I think he's an ok matchup for us. He's not so fast that our LBs can't keep up with him. Much less confident that we can handle a speedier QB, even if the faster QB is a worse thrower.

I know losing Burks was huge. Always thought Jefferson was a tough kid and excellent runner.

ETA Jefferson gives y'all the best chance to win sec games imo.

Dude, your post wreaked of a drag queen level freak out over a backup QB that has never taken a snap in the SEC.

Post better.

Arkansas?s strength is the run even with Jefferson. Their WR?s are fine but probably a step below what we saw from LSU and A&M, and there is no Burks. I think you have to make run stopping your top priority regardless. They ran for over 200 on us in Fayetteville last year, that doesn?t need to happen again.

They remind me of a stereotypical Dan Mullen MSU team. Contain the run and we will probably be fine

I guess it did to you since that's how you think, but carry on.

Something has happened to this board. The members have lost their ability to have a civil discussion. You can't ask a question or make a post anymore without going through a mental checklist to determine who/ how many you are going to offend or how your post is going to be so misinterpreted.

Brother, I'm not the one posting a freak out on a backup QB we are facing (maybe?).

You posted that Jefferson sucks so this change up is not good for us.

How?

Like I posted if this Cade guy was that good Jefferson would be the one riding the bench.

I'm really not trying to be an ass, I swear, but it's what you posted.

Yeah, I spoke to a couple of fence sitters that haven't been to a game in a couple of years and they are hyped. They plan on being there.

I'd say a good 52K, at the very least, will be there.

Also, just a reminder but we beat them in Fayetteville last year. It just so happened that the refs decided to give Arkansas extra downs at the end of the game.

Yep ... the thing for me is this win will come with an asterisk because their starting QB is out ... but I'll still take the advantage because in 2-3 years folks will have forgotten that caveat

We also missed 3 FGs so it wasn't all on the refs as to why we lost.

The RAT can show up any time when you least expect it. That's what makes him so dangerous.

If we lose do we get an asterisk because we are playing without our best D lineman? Injuries are a part of football.
